Because mark my goods in plain figures
that speak more eloquently than words.
Price tags which have a tongue. You need
no salesman to interpret for you. Your eyes
do it ALL Here are the Shoes and Hats.
Here are the prices on each. One price as
plain as black can be on white. We ask YOU
again why shouldn't this be the best place to
buy? We get the goods in such lots that the
manufacturer every time gives me his bottom
best prices No dealer anywhere can get the
goods on better terms than |. This is why no
other store can do better by you in fine Shoes
and Hats. It's with the things of little cost
that most dealers bait you. They can afford
to make loss on a small sale if they catch
you in that way for a big one. There is no
bait but honest value when yon see plain
price tag on every thing. Ours is the largest
stock by long odds in the town.

Our feeling towards the merchants ard bus
mess men of Charleston are just as kind as
they are for those of any other city within a
radius of a hundred miles, but we have never
been able TO see why with Charleston factors
it was necessary 10 charge from Il dollar to Il
dollar and Il half per bale for handling cotton,
while many of the factors of Augusta are will
ing and do handle ii from sixty cents TO one
dollar n bale. Charleston is II Seapor: and her
advantages are certainly not overcome by the
local conSumptive dcmacd Of Augusta. Con-
seouently the policy persisted in must be
clasSed as short SishtedncsS. 1t has not only
Il tendency to cut away much OF the city'S cot.
ton business but much of that which the
drycoods, Notion, shoe, hardware, grocery,
and other dealers would secure. What is
needed is a thorough change Of the whole cot
ton handling system, il viii do more for the
city than any ytlIing else.

Already.

NEW YORK, January 2l:-The agreement for
the transfer of the majority OF the preferred
stock of the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Railroad to the lichmonG and West
Point Terminal Company was signed to-day.
The parties now in control of the Richmond
and West Point Terminal arenow negotiating
for the control of the Georgia Central, but no
details can he obtained, and many of the par
lies interested deny that a deal concerning
the Georgia Central is on foot. Calvin =.
Brice, however, who conducted the ncgotia.
tions for the transfer Of the East TcnnncsSee
10 the Richmond Terminal Company, said
to-day that 1.-The Richmond Terminal people
are now arranging TO control the Georgia
Central The scheme is a great one, and
means more than is shown on the surface"
This was tile only confirmation that could be
obtained. II. B. Holland, who is one of the
Georgia Central directors, denied positively
that any negotiations were pending, and said
that the only proposition made was refused
long ago. The Richmond Terminal officials
also contradicted the story of their having
sought the control Of the Georgia Central.
Gen. Logan, vice-preSdcnt of the company,
said that the road under the management o!
Gen. Alexander was in harmony with his
company, and there was no desire to change
their relations.
